And I was talking about the front end of my Denali model...its a diecast model...but I'll trade a few pieces of plastic for an RC car :)
I drove it in to my swimming pool so it does not work. Also the dog broke one of the wheels off. Other than that its in great condition.

OK now that we have cleared all that Up I just need 85 dollars for shipping and were good to go. 10 of that is shipping but the rest is the gas,effort,pain,suffering, and insurance of bringing it to fedex.

I've only seen one that looked good and it had an 07 Classic front end. The others I've seen looked odd/lines out of place..

silverado end on the tahoe looks out of place to me. A for effor though.

I always thought this was a good idea until I saw one around here with it...the lines just don't flow for me.

I agree. It looks too aggressive for the tahoe. Maybe if it was lifted or something. The front end just seems out of place.


Here's another one from cardomain. Looks better with the SS bumper...

It does look better with the SS bumper, but still looks out of place.




The conversion is good and i give it an A for effort. Certainly is different and stands out.

It is just a regular silverado front end....the whole cat eye referres more to the style headlights since they have sharper corners....like calling a 5.0 a Fox Body....

maybe its not the correct term...I've just heard it called that a few times...either way...it looks sharp! (as in kool) lol...

I still think the nicest front end GM has is the 00-06 denali. I would take one of those in a heartbeat on my silverado.

+1000


If I didn't get my Escalade, I would have gotten a Denali. I really don't like the boxy headlights the escalades have.

My buddy that sold me the 20" rims in the thread I made has this done. The guy he bought it from had all factory 2005 Chevy Silverado pieces attached. $3200 in just sheetmetal alone (the factory shit is what will make it line up perfect). It has the SS bumper cover, 2005 inner fenderwells, everything. This mod is the coolest I think I've seen on these hoes yet, though whoever thought of putting that 02 HD hood on one is running a close second.....
